Is it possible to include these[1] icon themes and a sample conky script/template that looks more like this[2]? [1]http://merlinthered.deviantart.com/art/plain-weather-icons-157162192 [2]http://sunnysigara.deviantart.com/art/Milky-Moorhen-DE-302339119

Only change in the release 2 of conkywx 0.7.9 is the inclusion of conkywxwiki.html help file in the installation - though the file was there in the tar.xz archive - it was not being installed in the system.

Hi paramvir, Thank you for your answer. I lacked the file " .conkywx " (necessary, without what this cannot work:)) Examples were definitely in " / usr / share / conkywx ". Everything works correctly consequently. I give you my vote, of course! See you soon

Also If you are running gnome you will need to change the own_window_type to normal in the conkyrc file located in /usr/share/conkywx/examples - just check the conky-restart.sh - which conkyrc file is being called and make changes in that. My config is for XFCE 4.10 - and since you are already using conky - I guess you should be familiar with it - else you can always pop-in at the forums and we can sort it all out for you cheers

Hi onyx67 Just type conkywx in the terminal - will give you conkywx assistant and type 2 to read the conkywx wiki documentation in your browser. There are loads of examples in /usr/share/conkywx/examples directory. However - you can just type /usr/share/conkywx/conky-restart.sh - this will start conky weather in default template and location etc. You can copy the /etc/conkywx/conkywx.conf to you /home/user_name/.config/conkywx/ - in this file you will need to change your Location etc - if you read the manual conkywx wiki - you will find a good amount of documentation - as mentioned below you can also find more information in the forums https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1162348 Also to run conky with multiple configurations - i use a script file such as conky-restart.sh to launch all my configurations. To launch your existing config you can add an entry like conky -c ~/.conkyrc - this will also launch your config along with say conkywx. just see the file /usr/share/conkywx/conky-restart.sh - this file can be copied to any directory you like and add your conky lines etc and run conky this way. Let me know how it goes :) cheers Paramvir

Hi paramvir, I have just installed conkywx. I do not manage to use it. When I launch “conky- C ~/.configuration/conkywx” I have right “Weather update download completed”. I suppose that I must a create new “.conkywxrc” for the throw. I tried to find an example of configuration on the Web but did not find any. Do you have an example? (Knowing that I have already a “.conkyrc” for my data system). Thank you for your attention.

As many users are using various conky variants - conky is no longer a dependency but however - conky is still required. Please ensure conky - in what ever form - is infact installed.
